Baniyas by WIDIAN is a warm, woody oriental built on rose and oud. Bergamot opens it fresh, with pink pepper and saffron adding spice almost immediately. Jasmine, patchouli and rose form a dark, slightly sweet heart. The base is where it earns its weight: agarwood, amber and musk, dense and glowing. Worn by men and women alike, it suits anyone who wants a scent with real presence rather than something quiet. Voters wear it in autumn and winter, taking it from daytime into evening and night alike. Longevity leans toward long-lasting in the vote, with sillage leaning strong. Try a 3ml decant for a week and see if the weight of it suits you.

The community verdict
On autumn nights, Baniyas brings bergamot and pink pepper into rose and jasmine before settling on oud, amber and musk. Long-lasting wear and strong projection lead, with moderate the next answer in each case. Winter and evenings work too for its rich, floral style.

The house
More from WIDIAN
WIDIAN is a niche house founded in the United Arab Emirates in 2014, making rich perfumes that most people can wear regardless of gender. Expect amber and vanilla at the heart, sharpened with pink and black pepper, saffron and oud, then lifted by bergamot, lemon or orange flower. Patchouli, cedar and sandalwood give the base its weight. Baniyas is the first to try, followed by New York and Black II. Aswan and London complete the set, and two of them are named after cities. Each one deserves a few days on skin before you decide.
